Hope it all works out for yah Greg. BTW, I sent you a PM concerning the GT-Spec parts !

So a quick update...again.

Turbo is back as of today. We will be installing it tomorrow most likely and Dave will take it for a long drive to make sure all is well. After speaking to BW who was more then great about the whole thing, the turbo just saw too much oil pressure and it started blowing through the seal. everything is good to go, and the included a restrictor with the turbo to bring the oil pressure down a little going into the turbo.

I edited the first post with 3 pictures my friend took of the car after i had a chance to clean it up. Sadly to say, as winter approaches i'll be taking time off from modding the car and focusing on paying off my bills. If everything is taken care of come new year, i'll pick up the modding again in this order...

Brakes:
-Powdercoated Front and Rear Brembo's w/ New stickers
-Powerslot Front and Rear Rotors w/ Powder-coated Hats
-Hawk HPS Front and Rear Brake Pads
-Stoptech Stainless Steel Brake Lines (front and rear)
-Motul Fluid

Engine: (Temporary Solution until i can afford the 12k motor build i want)
-Weisco Stock Bore Forged and Coated Pistons
-Gates Timing Belt
-Cusco or Exedy Twin Plate Clutch

Exterior:
-Roof Vane Removed and Top part of car repainted
-Wingless Trunk Shaved/Debadged and repainted
-KS Tech Hood scoop delete painted SGM
-JDM Spec-C Front Lip painted SGM

Hopefully most of this can get done by the end of spring. We shall see.

hey greg i just took a closer look of your bay.. is that a custom overflow coolent tank in alumimun.. it blends in awesome

[Chris05STi]

Nice Greg!!! May I suggest instead of the Hawks, get the Ferrodo 2500's. They stop a hell of a lot better and can be used for the street! Not going for a Mines lip for the rear? BTW, my install should start this Sunday *crosses fingers*!

The one on the passenger side near the strut tower is the relocated coolant tank. The one near the battery area is the unit that comes with the APS FMIC.

Nice street car you got there. Should be a nice and quiet, plush ride haha.

I agree about the low end, but I wouldn't stop myself from going with bigger cams to keep it more streetable. Not at this point.

Ikon. What chris said is 100% right.

Matt. How's the car bro? Saw ur new thread title but haven't had a chance to read it. I hear what ur saying about the cams. I know you've told me before but what size cossie cams are you Running?

I'll be putting some back seats in soon just to help get rid of the exhaust sound coming into the car.
